These polygons task cards and activities are versatile and make great math scoots, small group activities, math centers, and quick assessments, and help develop higher-order, critical thinking skills!

All of the activities included in this product are low prep and super easy to implement. I suggest copying the polygons posters and task cards on cardstock and then laminating them for durability and long-lasting use. The polygons reference page is perfectly sized for inserting into a student math journal.

All you need to do is decide what will work best for your students, and your class will be ready to rock-n-roll with polygons and 2D shapes!

The activities included in this product align with the following second-grade and third-grade TEKS:

TEKS 2.8A - create two-dimensional shapes based on given attributes, including number of sides and vertices

TEKS 2.8C - use attributes to recognize rhombuses, parallelograms, trapezoids, rectangles, and squares as examples of quadrilaterals and draw examples of quadrilaterals that do not belong to any of these subcategories

TEKS 3.6B - use attributes to recognize rhombuses, parallelograms, trapezoids, rectangles, and squares as examples of quadrilaterals and draw examples of quadrilaterals that do not belong to any of these subcategories
